Education 2.0 & 3.0

The global pandemic thrust online teaching to the forefront. Online enrollments rose while campus enrollments declined. Is face-to-face teaching doomed? Will virtual campuses be the norm? Is there no middle ground?

Allowing for greater flexibility, a HyFlex teaching model enables higher student engagement and options as opposed to completely hybrid or in-person learning.

At San José State University, students are back. But virtual classes are not going away. The trend toward online teaching, fueled by covid concerns, appears to be making deeper headway in higher education.

Some faculty members will continue to teach online and hybrid courses this fall. Here’s what they’ll need.

Caring for others has never been so vital. We teach humanity, not technology. Use hybrid education to build community.

Earlier this year, the ANU Service Experience team (previously Experience Accelerator) interviewed remote overseas students about their online learning experience (find out more about the project). While this human-centred design (HCD) research revealed at times a depressing picture of the remote student experience, it also generated a collection of practical suggestions directly from students for how their online experience could be improved. Today, we will share with you their tips and tricks for fostering connection at the start of the semester. 

This free PDF download is designed for teachers entering a hybrid or remote teaching model in the Fall of 2020. Based on my personal experience working as a hybrid teacher and educational technology consultant.
